Waxing Moon in Scorpio, with Venus and Mars, daily transits for October 10 2010

October 10, 2010 — Living Moon Astrology

The Moon, established in Scorpio since yesterday, will be conjunct Venus and Mars today, the two still very close to each other.

If you are lucky enough to enjoy clear skies tonight (it has been raining non stop in our region) the first Crescent, a beautiful slither of a Moon, will form a magical triangle with Venus and Mars in the Tropical or Seasonal Sign of Scorpio but against the backdrop of the Scales Constellation (Mars is conjunct the alpha of this stars’ formation). Navigate to my CURRENT NIGHT SHOWS PAGE to view a picture of this event.

The Moon always works as a medium of the energies of the further away celestial bodies, galvanizing those energies and thus manifesting them in our lives and psyches. So today the Moon will be the catalyst of some powerful Scorpio stuff, in an ambivalent landscape, implying some duality or confrontation or longing for wholeness and unity, the energies of Mars and Venus still mingling from their recent close encounter now led closer together by the rays of the Moon moving from one to the other. The intensity, the depth, the knowing that goes beyond words or pretensions or wishful thinking.

The Birthday people more likely to keenly feel this lunar transit are Scorpio born between November 5 and 12; Taurus, May 3 to 11; Leo, August 5 to 13; Aquarius, February 2 to 9.

And also anyone with Moon, Ascendant (or one of the other Angles) and Planets (especially Mercury, Venus and Mars) between the 12 and 19 degrees of the above Fixed Signs; or the same degrees of the other two Water Signs, Cancer and Pisces.

This is a bit of a special day for all of us really. The intensity is there for all to plug into, the emotional depth too and the focus on very personal matters. The way each of us will experience it would depend on many factors: the area of our Natal Chart the Moon and Venus-Mars are transiting at present, and also the place and aspects of our Natal Moon, Venus and Mars. Are they in harmony with this transit, are their energies compatible? How you think they would fair today or during the long transit of Venus in Scorpio?

The Moon’s transits today is giving us perhaps a taste of things to come.

I’m in the midst of growing out a very short, somewhat bad haircut and would like to get it cut/shaped before I travel home in Nov. to see family and friends. I’d like my hair to grow out thicker, as I lost a lot in the past due to Lyme disease treatment, more than faster. But, I’ve read that to cut for thickness with the moon, one should get it cut on the full moon. But, that won’t be possible….any suggestions?

Hi Troot, I’m happy to tell you that you don’t need to wait for the Full Moon, because the best results for rapid hair growth are obtained, astrologically speaking, in the waxing of the Moon, the present phase. On October 15, in Australia, will begin the First Quarter Moon Phase in the Sign of Capricorn, a fertile Sign, positive for cutting your hair, because fertile Signs promote growth, especially in the waxing fortnight. The end of the waxing period will end with the Full Moon in Aries on October 23, a very harsh and dry Full Moon. I would not recommend it for your hair job.
The positive results however are not immediate. You need to cut your hair regularly, as close to the New Moon Phase as you can, but possibly not on the same day as the New Moon.
The Sign of the Moon is also very important. Remember that all the Water Signs, Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces, are fertile; and also productive are Taurus and Capricorn, two Earth Signs, but not Virgo. Libra can be productive, but not the other two Air Signs, Gemini and Aquarius. All the Fire Signs, Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, are not fertile, so they are not suitable to cut your hair in order to grow it thicker and faster.
Everything takes its time though. Cheers, Paola
